Comparison of general clinical data between total splenectomy and SPSE
The surgical success rate was 100%. No cases of serious postoperative complications or post-splenectomy infections were found in either group within one month after surgery during the follow-up period. There was no statistical difference in the preoperative condition of the two groups (TABLE 1), and hemolysis was significantly improved in both groups. The average hemoglobin value increased significantly from 7.4g/dL before total splenectomy to 11.7g/dL after total splenectomy (P< 0.001). The average hemoglobin value increased significantly from 6.97g/dL before SPSE to 12.2g/dL after SPSE (P < 0.001). Compared to total splenectomy, patients who had undergone PSAE exhibited higher platelet counts within 1 month postoperatively (P < 0.05).
